Asset Allocation


In order to gain a broad understanding of investments, I read an online article, http://money.usnews.com/money/personal-finance/articles/2014/09/05/10-financial-terms-every-investor-should-know, regarding financial terms. One word I found interesting was asset allocation. I learned that asset allocation was an investment strategy aiming to balance risk and reward by distributing a portfolio's assets based on an individual's goals. There are 3 general categories in which money can be stored: cash, bonds, and stocks. Considering each class has a unique level of risk and reward factor, each will behave differently over time.
